Joining the Ox series, here comes a Jack Purell that takes its form in leather ox. It looks like some dragon scales but what was used on its uppers are some premium croc skins. It scales down its sizes from its heel to its vamp. It has white for contrast seen on the rubber toecap and the sole as well. It has a red smile on its front which is a sign of the Happy Chinese New Year.
Converse did not allow the rest of the sneaker brands to leave them behind when it comes to the Chinese New Year designs. This is set in their One Star Classic 74 II Ox which is made out bright red suede material and has embossed dragon detail. It has accents of black for its leather interior and some off white for its outersole. It also implements some final touches on it.
One of the modern releases of the Converse First String line would be the Jack Purcell Johnny Hi. It gets a stateside release just right before the year ends. This is a hi top sneaker pair that is built on the classic model of Jack Purcell which utilizes the classic toe cap and adds subtle variations right on its uppers. It also has a black version that comes with tonal chambray and suede material for the uppers too. The white version on the other hand called the Parchment has tonal suede and canvas.
The rising brand of Vanquish is boosted with the numerous collaborative projects that they have gotten highly involved with. It was featured in major catalogs over the previous year which included already Fragment and Adidas. It is run by Ryo Ishikawa and they are looking forward to continue the success streak by 2012 as they work with Converse this time around.
It comes with three versions using the Skidgrip VQ model with black leather for its uppers and some suede at the top. It has synthetic patent right on the medial side and the tongue plus the quilted pattern on its lateral side. It has metal studs on its eyelets too plus the leopard print insole.
